His and Hers

Thursday, August 28, 2014

Today is a first for Chic on the Cheap, today's post features men's fashion. I'm pretty excited and happy to be introducing you to my boyfriend, Sean. He wasn't initially too keen on joining me, but when Lisa, the fabulous PR rep I've been working with, asked me if I was doing men's fashion these days, I thought it would be the perfect catalyst.

When it comes my to own fashion choices, comfort is an adjective that often gets placed pretty low on the list, however that is not the case with men. That's why Tani, currently tailored exclusively to men, puts comfort first with their undergarments.

Sean has on their Swiss Cotton v-neck, which is extraordinarily soft, stretchy, and comfortable. I'm particularly fond of v-necks on men, and while the description states it can be worn on it's own, it would probably be best to size up for that purpose. It's also entirely possible I will be borrowing it, on those days when 'comfort' creeps up just a bit higher on my list.

Hopefully this won't be the last you see of Sean on the blog, but even if it is, I'm just happy he puts up with playing photographer whenever we are together, loves going thrift shopping with me, despite my keeping him in the store about an hour longer than he would like, and even submits to the occasional selfie.

What a wonderful surprise. You're gorgeous couple. Previous post I posted as well my fiance ootd and it wasn't easy to talk him into taking photos of him and posting on blog, since he is feeling comfortable behind camera. You look so wonderful in your pretty dress and I love those heels.♥xoxo Ra

You two really make such a lovely couple - I especially love the candid capture in the third last photo, there's something so charming about a photo that captures how a couple really are together and that they both look adorable in all at the same time. (Which is so very rare with candid photos, sadly.) Oh, and by the way, this dress is to die for.xox,Cee

I think every lady is giving you high fives for getting your other half on the blog! I haven't even asked mine but I'm my brain has been brewing up so many ideas. You need to keep these posts comin!xo Adriwww.adrilately.blogspot.com

OMG! How cute are the two of you?! Kudos to you for convincing him to take part. :-) I actually convinced Dave to start a new blog with me. (The domain is purchased, more details to come.) It's more fun when they take part.
